Blue Moon Year

Once in a blue moon, we get a full moon on the last day of the year. How fitting for this year, with all its economic gloom, to have a moon this month that’s blue. Although the moon isn’t really blue – or, for that matter, Swiss cheese – it seems very fitting to have this year end up looking blue.

Have a Happy New Year; we can only hope 2010 doesn’t have any blue in it.The blue moon last night turned into gray clouds, as San Francisco was socked in, so here’s a Mystical moon from the past.
